lyrics
It’s the topline of a lifetime
Everyday we stretch the limit
Of energy / irony / you and me
Take me downtown
Affluence spreads / without consequence
But it feels wrong, like a timebomb
Take a look at what you thought you wanted
Do you see where you went wrong?
Turn back the clock and do it over
Instead of designing a timebomb
It’s a new day; brings a heartache
We never even took a minute
But anyway / who’s to say / brand new day
Pushin’ onward
Gentrify / socialite / suicide
But it feels wrong, like a timebomb
Take a look at what you thought you wanted
Do you see where you went wrong?
Turn back the clock and do it over
Instead of desigining a timebomb
It’s the topline of a lifetime
But it feels wrong, like a timebomb
Everyday we stretch the limit
Of energy / irony / you and me
Take me downtown
Affluence spreads / without consequence
But it feels wrong, like a timebomb
Take a look at what you thought you wanted
Do you see where you went wrong?
Turn back the clock and do it over
Instead of designing a timebomb
It’s a new day; brings a heartache
We never even took a minute
But anyway / who’s to say / brand new day
Pushin’ onward
Gentrify / socialite / suicide
But it feels wrong, like a timebomb
Take a look at what you thought you wanted
Do you see where you went wrong?
Turn back the clock and do it over
Instead of desigining a timebomb
It’s the topline of a lifetime
But it feels wrong, like a timebomb
